or is that a "do your own homework too " kind of deal

please explain that to me.... it can't be for a lack of fish or is it?

We where using the same thing basically.I may have utilized a different trailer.I often switch off of pork rinds to some sort of rubber to give me more lift..With more lift I can use a heavier jig.Which in turn I can cast further and fish it longer or slower...I think it was that and simple location..Even though we where only a few feet apart.The angle in which I made my presentation in relative terms to the structure was better than his..

as you can see i am fine tuning my thought process and taking advantage of the OFF season to pose questions to sharpies.

I have freshwater down to a science and RARELY get skunked

but with current ,tides ,and countless other SALTWATER variables
i find the learning curve to be much steeper

thanks for splainiation

I asked J.Powers why he fishes in a crowd of people.He said he likes to pull fish out in front of them..He does it too..
I like to think I am pretty good with a jig.I have only fished with a few people who I would say are better than me no question..
JP is one of them..

the early bird gets the worm. the guy who gets said spot first gets the best rock to fish from. which means he gets the ideal location to cast, let out so much line, and then begin his technique. But remember when letting out line keep fingers on line/spool at all times. there has been many a times when fish hit on the way down from initial cast

work hard, fish hard and die happy!
